#-but dedede is still out for blood despite not being a dedicated bad guy in years

Ideal anime Dedede would have been a "I mean yeah I bully the kid but I don't want him DEAD." And they'd actually keep that trait consistent.

#batty babbles #IM LOOKING AT YOU DEDEDE REVERTING TO A JACKAMULE AFTER THE METOR ARC AND THE FAKE DEATH EPISODE #petty dedede is fine just hate he learned his lesson more than once but because it was episodic they removed any character development #“i attempt murder on a child daily” dedede should have been out of the question long before the anime was written #kirby 64 was in development at the time and he was literally only the antagonist once prior in kirby's literal first game. #dark matter and nightmare were right there to be “out to kill kirby” antagonists #oh sure meta knight is forgiven from his ACTUAL attempt to kill kirby in superstar- #-but dedede is still out for blood despite not being a dedicated bad guy in years #mini rant i guess #I love how boisterous he is but he was just such a huge ass and it didn't represent is at the time character well
